No Hap,that's yellow card. Because  it is not clear chance on goal.  GK doesn't receive always red card if he touches ball outside the box. Sure 100%

But perhaps our first goal is on offside (matter of  centimeters though)

Not a red card? Ridiculous stuff, Robes. That's a 100% clear red card, any day of the week, on every pitch in the world. If you deny this, you lose all credibility to ever again complain about referees.

Inter should be down to ten, it's 1:0 to PSV still.
Instead, Inter score a minute later.

Amazed that van Bommel did not strangle the fourth official tbh

Robbed. Disgusting refereeing. Can't wait for VAR to rid us of this.

I think a red card would be fair, considering it would have most likely been a goal if the keeper hadn't stopped the ball with his hand. I can't positively say that it looked like he did it intentionally, but I assume the former argument prevails regardlessly, in this context.

Don't you know a ref in Franconia?

It was not red card because he was on defiladed position and defenders were coming towards the goal.
It was not clear chance to score but potentially dangerous, so yellow card.

Say hello to your former captain though, I have a good memory of him.

La Liga stadiums are graveyards compared to this.

EPL overmodulates crowd noise in production and even injects artificial crowd noise in some cases:

"What's going on with West Ham United and their stadium that we all have to pay for? They are losing lots of games and pumping in fake crowd noise, that's what."

Well , the Thatcherism has made grey everything.

Best atmopshere is in German stadiums, Bundesliga stadiums are so similar to old Serie A experience.

What a blunder by lloris wish I had gotten to see this live

Can someone explain how Handanovic dint get sent off for handling the ball outside the box ? What a horrible blunder. PSV got absolutely robbed there.

I ' ve explained above why

When you ignore the rules It is enough to ask to a referee,

For example follow him

Former ref that talks clearly about episodes on his blog
You'll read because It is correct the Yellow card

That's the Champions League, not a joke league as Serie A

Everything about that strike is just art. Wonder goal.

Good night to everyone

Barcellona - Inter on Wednesday with important absences by both side

- Lionel Messi

- Radja Nainggolan . He is not the best player in the world as The Atomic Flea, but he is probably our most important player tactically. We haven't another player as him

- Perhaps Brozovic and Perisic too

Doesn't look good for Inter. Without those players even a draw is probably impossible.

Lozano scored , 1-0 PSV vs Spurs

Pls resist

Goal ruled out for offside

hmmmmm

very, very lucky for PSV, as I don't see how Kane interfered with this goal in any way. Did he hinder the defender from making a goal line block?

Honest to God, I think that might be one of the worst offside calls I've ever seen

The only saving Grace is that from the horizontal angle the assistant ref is looking, he didn't have the depth perception to understand Kane was nowhere near that ball, or affecting the play in any sense

That is MAYBE the only way that could be called.

Bonkers offside call. PSV getting some luck here

Yes , no idea why It was disallowed

Deserved Spurs tie then, but also a Pereiro crossboard

Entertaining match who will finish with PSV to lose at home such as against Inter
